INDIFFERENCE.
Among all the foibles and short
comings of humanity, in till ages,
thp fault of indifference sticks out
in bold relief. Men's rcgarillcsncb
of reproof oiul warning lias formed
the keynote of many a despairing
cry from prophets and feages, moral
ists and reformers. With all the
boasted advancement of this age,
but little improvement, if any, is to
lie noted in the respect mentioned.
If men arc more readily moved, it
is not because of their better dis
position than in ages past, but be
cause the motive machinery of to
day is more ample and powerful
than then. They are, however,
liable to be moic easily operated
upon for the worse as well as for the
better. Just as, in the case of mo
dern war, one power has an equal
chance with another, other things
being on a par, to procure the im
proved appliances of death and de
struction, so that neither is at an
advantage over the other. Like
wise, modern moral enginery is cap
able of being degraded to evil pur
poses as well as employed for good
ones. It remains, therefore, that
with all our enlightenment and faci
lities for the betterment of the race,
human nature being unchanged,
the reformer, in any department
where his services are needed
society, politics or philanthropy
has a task as difficult as any of his
predecessors. And, probably, the
most formidable work devolving up
on all reformers combined is that of
overcoming the indifference of
humanity to human welfare.
A contemporary deprecates the
absolute inattention paid to a sug
gestion it made a while ago, of
having female patients in the luna
tic asylum attended by persons of
their own sex instead of by men as
is the case. It says: "There are
female organizations in Honolulu for
a great variety of objects, but when
it comes down to the practical woik
of humanity we don't find many of
them to the fore. Why not take
our charitable institutions into the
scope of local female philanthropy.
There is a wide field for usefulness
epen. Let charitable Christian wo
men step into it ann sec tuat our
public institutions are properly man
aged, at least so far as female in
mates are concerned." This lecture
to the ladies of this community may
bo well-meaning enough, but yet a
three-fold charge may lie against it,
as it stands, of being curt, unmanly
and unjust. It is curt in its sharp
and abrupt manner of implying wo
men's responsibility in the matter in
question. From the standpoint of
the men of the community, it is un
manly to invoke tho agency of the
weaker bcx for tho removal of an
abuse toward women maintained in
n public institution entirely under
the direction of men. Unjust it un
doubted' is to insinuate that all the
female organizations m existence
here are practically worthless for
any appreciable good thoy arc doing
humanity. Tho Christian ladies of
this Kingdom have, for their efforts
in various directions of moral and
social reform, been lampooned by
writers in a portion of the Honolulu,
and of the San Francisco press. In
that social question that more close
ly affects the welfare of their sex
than any other that of strong drink
their efforts have been treated
with virtual contempt by the lords
of creation. While the women, for
instance, hnvo been usiug their In
fluence toward stemming the tide of
Intemperance, the men, who hnvo
the making of the laws altogether
in their own liands, have been
i educing the barriers against the
evil, and increasing the facilities for
its propagation. Much encourage
ment the women have to interfere in
the management of public institu
tions I
Still, it looks very much as if thu
women would have to take some
matters of government in hand. If
the men of Honolulu arc so lost to
the claims of humanity, as to per
sistently close their eyes to such
abuses us the one above designated,
the women must, in sheer self-defense,
intervene upon behalf of
their sex and the decencies of civil
ization. But before assuming a
dictatorial tone toward the feminine
portion of the community, com
manding them to fill up the measure
of their derelict husbands, brothers
and sons, it would be more becom
ing for masculine editors to stir up
the sense of shame in the delinquent
men. A dead-weight of dndiffer
ence, in seemingly more than ordin
ary degree, seems to rest upon this
community in respect to public af
fairs and institutions. Popular in
terest would seem capable of being
evoked to a practical extent only by
the visitation of the results of neg
lect, in severe measure, upon the
people's heads. Then there is a
spasmodic convulsion of public
opinion, which soon subsides, and
matters go on as usual," with "causes
not removed and effects unchanged.
By all means let the women take
the initiative in measures to reform
the crying abuse above-mentioned,
if they do so only to put the men to
shame for their callous indifference.
A NUISANCE.
A poi manufactory, unless con
ducted with strict regard to cleanli
ness in all its departments, becomes
a nuisance in the locality where it
exists. The process of manufac
ture docs not necessarily involve
anything more disagreeable to near
neighbors than does a rice mill, or a
blacksmith's shop, or a carriage
factory. Neglect to remove the
offal of the taro, as well as the water
in which the taro is washed, consti
tutes the nuisance. This refuse
matter putrefies, and emits a foul
odor which impregnates the atmos
phere a considerable distance from
the place of deposit, and is scarcely
less offensive than a slaughter yard.
As a matter of fact, this is a nuisance
which has an actual existence in the
city and suburbs of Honolulu. The
offenders arc mostly, if not solely,
Chinamen. Wash houses within the
city were considered sufficiently de
trimental to public comfort and
public health to necessitate removal.
The same reasons, intensified, can
be adduced for similar action re
gaiding poi manufactories. At least,
if the law cannot compel their re
moval, it can insist upon their being
kept in a condition not to jeopardise
the health of those living near.

VENTURE
nPHIS fast trotting stallion has been
JL withdrawn from training and will
now be kept for stock purposes exclu.
sively. He has shown as much speed as
ever and had it not been for an acci
dent which befell him a few days be
fore tho race, he being dead lame on the
11th, wo think that he would havo glv
en the gang a haid tusslo for tho money.
Ho is now ull right again, and is being
regularly jogged at tho track, and can
show close to a 2:30 clip at any time
that he is called upon. This kind of
treatment has been fouud by long ex.
pcrience to be the right plan to adopt
with a stallion, as by it ho Is not only a
surer foal-getter, but also ho will
transmit a greater amount of speed,
energy and vigor to his oll&pring. This
plan is now the rule in all of the largo
breeding establishments everywhere.
To parties owning good mares this is
an opportunity that should not bo neg
lected, for Venture, with his lino breed
ing and great speed, I consider tho most
desirable stock horso in the country.
Mr. Campbell tells mo that ot all of tho
horses that he Jinu imported to this coun
try, wliicli is probably n dozen or more,
ho likes his colts by Venture better than
any of them, which is surely proof
enough of his qualities as a stock.getter.
Marcs will be taken to the Park and
returned free of charge. For any addi
llonal paiticulars apply to comer of
Punchbowl and Queen Streets.
